Context engineering: the art of feeding LLMs

You build a RAG pipeline, connect it to Azure OpenAI, and the answers come back… meh. Generic. Sometimes it ignores the context you sent. Sometimes it makes things up. The model is powerful, but input quality usually determines most of the result. Context engineering is the discipline of assembling that input so the model gives you what you actually need. It is not just “prompt engineering” with a fresher label. It is engineering: structure, constraints, and trade-offs. ...

Introduction to AI and Comparing OpenAI with Azure OpenAI

As I embark on my journey of learning about artificial intelligence (AI), I am discovering the fascinating world of large language models (LLMs) and their applications in various technologies. In this article, I aim to share my newfound knowledge and insights with others who are also beginning their journey in AI. We will explore OpenAI, one of the leading organizations in AI research and development, and compare its offerings with Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI service. ...
